Pak'nSave

PAK'nSAVE is a New Zealand discount food warehouse chain owned by the Foodstuffs cooperative.

Founded in 1985, PAK'nSAVE was the last of the three major New Zealand supermarkets (Countdown, New World, and PAK'nSAVE) to be founded. As of October 2012, there are 52 Pak'n Save stores operating across the North and South Islands of New Zealand.

PAK'nSAVE's key policy is to provide everyday food and groceries at low prices which they state in their current slogan (as of October 2012) ‘Our Policy: NZ’s Lowest Food Prices ‘ . Stores are large and have a no-frills environment, often with unlined interiors and concrete floors. Customers are also asked to pack their own bags, and charged for plastic bags in most stores.
